Abstract: | Anti-static properties of cationic polymers on hair have been measured by using an electrostatic voltmeter. Comparisons are made with conventional cationic surfactants. Behaviour of cationic polymers from a cationic base and an anionic base have been explained. Experiments are performed to arrive at the hypothesis that cationic polymers form a complex with anionic detergent and that this cation-anion complex solubilizes in excess of anionic detergent, but on dilution with water it forms a turbid solution.
